The Tick New Episodes, Return Date, and More Season 1 Details
The Tick returns to dispense more justice on Amazon in February 2018.

The Tick pilot arrived on Amazon as a long-gestating television reboot of Ben Edlund’s classic indie comic book series, popular 1990’s Fox animated series and gone-too-soon 2001-2002 Fox live-action series.
While the casting of English comedian and Guardians of the Galaxy actor Peter Serafinowicz as the mighty blue buffoon was initially met with skepticism, he ended up embodying the role quite well, yielding fan feedback and numbers successful enough to warrant a subsequent series order. The first six episodes arrived on Amazon in August and the second half of the season is arriving very soon.
The Tick Return Date
The Tick will make evil eat his justice when it returns to Amazon on February 23, 2018. You can catch up on the first six episodes here.
The Tick Trailer
The new The Tick trailer, arrving via EW, heralds the Amazon show’s February 23 midseason return, which will be filled with Terror, as in Jackie Earle Haley’s presumed-dead megalomaniacal supervillain.
In response, The Tick is attempting to make this revived reprobate eat his justice by putting together his own super team amongst an unfortunate selection of costumed heroes that includes Overkill (Scott Speiser), Tinfoil Kevin (Devin Ratray), Superian (Brendan Hines), Midnight (voiced by Townsend Coleman), Dangerboat (voiced by Alan Tudyk), and Arthur’s sister, Dot (Valorie Curry). However, the aged evildoer, now going by “Terror 2.0,” has plenty of malevolent machinations up his sleeve, including a destructive reunion with the electrifying Miss Lint (Yara Martinez).
On a side note, the trailer signs off with the birth of a certain utensil-inspired signature catchphrase that longtime fans of The Tick franchise will applaud.
With the new trailer comes this new promo poster.

An here are the previous The Tick trailers…
“Murder – it’s just not cool.” -Dostoyevsky -The Tick
The Tick trailer is chock-full of the one-liners and stupendously absurd superheroics that you’ve come to expect from the franchise. Moreover, the classic dynamic between Tick and Arthur is on display in raucous repertory form, as the duo battle a gaggle of villains such as Jackie Earle Haley’s The Terror and Yara Martinez’s Ms. Lint.

While storylines for The Tick‘s full series debut are unknown, here are some details dropped about show in the aftermath of the pilot’s premiere.
“This has been a labor of love for Amazon, Sony, and all of us,” said creator and executive producer Ben Edlund, in a statement. “The only way for this to have value was if we found a wholly new expression of The Tick and Arthur’s story in live-action, and I think we’re on to something.
“Visually and thematically this new Tick lives in the textures and rhetoric of today’s superhero saturation tsunami — and for it to be something you want to watch for hours, it needed to find its way to a story with heart and stakes, as well as absurdism. Is it a radically new hybrid of humor and super heroic action with characters you will care desperately about? YES! Yes it is.”
